Global Nonabsorbable Multifilament Suture Market By Product (Silk Sutures, Polyester Sutures, Polypropylene Sutures, Nylon Sutures), By Application (Ophthalmic Surgeries, Cardiovascular Surgeries, and Other Applications), By End-User (Hospitals/Clinics, Ambulatory Surgical Centers), By Region, and Key Companies - Industry Segment Outlook, Market Assessment, Competition Scenario, Trends and Forecast 2022-2032

Nonabsorbable Multifilament Suture Market Overview:

The Nonabsorbable Multifilament Suture Market is projected to reach a valuation of USD 7.4 Bn by 2032 at a CAGR of 5.4%, from USD 4.2 Bn in 2021.

Sutures are threads or wires that are used to close wounds and surgical incisions. The material is threaded through a needle before being sewn into the wound. Suturing is a popular wound closure method that has a stronger tensile strength than surgical glues or staples. There are two types of sutures: absorbable and nonabsorbable.

Non-absorbable sutures are not designed to be broken down by the body and may need to be removed after a wound has healed on the outside. Non-absorbable sutures can stay in the body’s tissue for a long time. These sutures are used for long-term closures or tissue that needs a longer time to recover.

Non-absorbable sutures are often chosen for their superior handling characteristics and tensile strength. Even non-absorbable sutures, on the other hand, deteriorate over time. Nylon, polypropylene (Prolene), silk, polyester (Ethibond Excel), and stainless steel are common non-absorbable suture materials.

Market Dynamics 

Drivers for the Global Nonabsorbable Multifilament Suture Market:

The expansion of the global non-absorbable sutures market is predicted to be boosted by an increase in the number of operations due to unhealthy lifestyles and aging populations. Furthermore, technological improvements will have a beneficial impact on market growth by improving the safety and efficacy of procedures. Increased endeavors by key competitors for product development and distribution operations, such as collaborations and acquisitions, will fuel market expansion prospects in the process.

Restraints Global Nonabsorbable Multifilament Suture Market:

The availability of alternatives such as surgical staplers is a major stumbling block to the global non-absorbable sutures market. Furthermore, issues related to hemorrhaging, esophageal, and colonic anastomosis leakages, may have a negative impact on this market’s revenue growth trajectory.

Opportunities for the Global Nonabsorbable Multifilament Suture Market:

Owing to ever-increasing geriatric populations as well as a surge in the number of operations being carried out, the global non-absorbable sutures market is expected to expand rapidly. This spike in surgical operations is related to an increase in cardiovascular disease cases, and people’s desire to improve their physical appearance (thus increasing the number of cosmetic surgical procedures). All of these factors could lead to increased revenue growth for the Non-absorbable multifilament suture market.

Trends for the Global Nonabsorbable Multifilament Suture Market:

The surgical sutures market is fostered by high admission rates, technological improvements in healthcare facilities, increased government healthcare expenditures, better distribution channels by industry players, and reimbursement regulations.

Medical tourism from various emerging markets also contributes to the revenue growth of this industry. However, as tailored drugs become more common, this trend is projected to shift toward minimally invasive operations, perhaps reducing the use of surgical sutures over time.
